The development of new materials is crucial for achieving future technological advancements, such as hypersonic aircraft, space tourism, and sustainable energy sources. The traditional method of inventing new materials relies on trial and error, which is no longer feasible due to the vast number of combinations possible with even a small set of elements. A new approach, known as audacious industrialisation, is being taken by the Collaborative Research Centre 1232 Farbige Zustände at the University of Bremen, Germany. This centre is using data and automation to speed up the process of discovering new materials, which will enable the creation of unprecedented efficiency increases in industries such as automotive and aerospace. The centre's database, built on MongoDB, stores information about every step of the material generation process, from creation to testing, allowing for a highly efficient search function that can predict the most promising experiments. This approach has the potential to revolutionise materials science and pave the way for new breakthroughs in fields such as space exploration.
